The crystal structures of three intermediate compounds in the synthesis of 8-bromo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,3,3-trimethyldipyrrin are reported; 4-bromo-2-formyl-1-tosyl-1H-pyrrole, C12H10BrNO3S, (E)-4-bromo-2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1-tosyl-1H-pyrrole, C13H11BrN2O4S, and 6-(4-bromo-1-tosylpyrrol-2-yl)-4,4-dimethyl-5-nitrohexan-2-one, C19H23BrN2O5S. The compounds show multitudinous intermolecular C—H...O interactions, with bond distances and angle consistent in the series and within expectations, as well as varied packing types. The merits of collecting data beyond the standard resolution usually reported for small molecules are discussed.

The programSIR2000[Burlaet al.(2000).Acta Cryst.A56, 451–457] was designed for theab initiosolution of macromolecular crystal structures, provided that the data resolution is no lower than 1.2 Å. As the phasing procedure ofSIR2000is rather time consuming, modifications have been introduced to improve its efficiency and to make it additionally suitable for small molecules (new versionSIR2000-N). The role of the tangent refinement in modern phasing procedures is enlightened.

Two novel inclusion compounds of 4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoate anions and tetrapropylammonium cations with different ancillary molecules of water and boric acid, namely bis(tetrapropylammonium) 4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoate dihydrate, 2C12H28N+·C14H8O6S2−·H2O (1), and bis(tetrapropylammonium) 4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoate bis(boric acid), 2C12H28N+·C14H8O6S2−·2H3BO3 (2), were prepared and characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the two salts, the host 4,4′-sulfonyldibenzoic acid molecules, which are converted to the corresponding anions under basic conditions, can be regarded as proton acceptors which link different proton donors of the ancillary molecules of water or boric acid. In this way, an isolated hydrogen-bonded tetramer is constructed in salt 1 and a ribbon is constructed in salt 2. The tetramers and ribbons are then packed in a repeating manner to generate various host frameworks, and the tetrapropylammonium guest counter-ions are contained in the cavities of the host lattices to give the final stable crystal structures. In these two salts, although the host anion and guest cation are the same, the difference in the ancillary small molecules results in different structures, indicating the significance of ancillary molecules in the formation of crystal structures.

The hydrogen-bond acceptor characteristics of sulfate dianions are analyzed in crystal structures of small molecules. For 85 anions, neither coordinated to metal ions nor covalently bonded, 697 hydrogen bonds are faund. Of these, 266 (38%) are the O...H—O type and 431 (62%) are the O...H—N type, proportions that correspond well to the stoichiometry of the compounds studied and indicate no preference for a particular donor. The analysis of the data set, after classifying the hydrogen bonds according to the different types of donors, shows that O...H—O bonds are more linear than O...H—N. The anion oxygen–acceptor function is characterized by multiple hydrogen bonding. Only in 56 cases does a sulfate oxygen participate in a single hydrogen bond. In most cases every sulfate oxygen is coordinated by two (187 cases) or three (89 cases) hydrogen bonds. For three H donors, the preferred coordination geometry of the sulfate oxygen is pyramidal. The most frequent coordination around a sulfate dianion is with eight to ten H donors. Thus, sulfate dianions can play a significant cohesive role in molecular aggregation.
